Caitlin Clark’s Teammate Praises Overlooked Aspect of Fever Guard’s Game

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is known for her long-range 3-pointers and seemingly limitless scoring ability.

According to one of her Fever teammates, center Temi Fagbenle, however, Clark should be getting more praise for another aspect of her offensive game.

On Monday, Fagbenle was asked to comment on the connection she’s made with Clark so far this season, particularly on full-court length passes.

“She’s a great passer, and she’s always going to pass it when I’m open,” Fagbenle said, via Fever beat reporter Matthew Byrne. “It’s really amazing, because we haven’t had many practices together… I’ve only had a few of those kind of point guards, who you just know sees the play before it’s happened.

“Regular point guards, I’m like, they didn’t see it… but Caitlin saw that before I was open!”

Through seven games this season, Clark is averaging 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6.3 assists per contest.

She’s recorded at least seven assists in four of her last five games.

“Temi and Caitlin have that chemistry,” one fan posted.

Clark and the Fever (1-6) will return to the hardwood Tuesday night for a matchup against the L.A. Sparks.

Tipoff is set for 7:00 p.m. ET.
